British gamers wanting to meet Will Wright, creator of Spore, Sim City, and The Sims, are going to get two chances tomorrow when he appears in London at the Apple Store on Regent Street and HMV on Oxford Street.

Two hundred fans will be able to question the legendary designer when he appears at lunchtime in at HMV's flagship store at 150 Oxford Street, as well as having the opportunity to get sleeves for Spore signed ahead of the game's release. Those bringing signed sleeves back after the game's launch next week will then receive a free T-shirt when they buy a retail copy.

If you're interested, then head down to HMV from 9 a.m. on Wednesday, at which point 200 wristbands granting access to the Q&A session will be handed out on a first-come, first-served basis. HMV also warns that "due to the whimsical nature of the entertainment industry, events are subject to change without notice."

Shortly after that, Wright's going to be making his way down the road to the Apple Store on Regent Street for a 3 p.m. session in-store, and is currently scheduled to be there for about an hour, with no limitations on numbers currently in place. According to Apple, this event will give you the chance to "learn from the creator himself how to take your avatar from primordial soup to intergalactic supremacy."
